Man I'm glad I went with a 4000 converter Man oh man...finally got the car back with the rebuilt tranny and 4000 revmax. What a huge difference. Took me 5minutes to get used to it...then it was nothing but smiles. I thought it was hauling *** with the stock converter....yeah right
. I'm soooo glad I didn't get a 3600 or below or I would've definitely regretted it. Damm it flys when you give it gas comparable to the stocker. Too much to say...it just kinda sucks because I only get to drive it today...because it goes in tomorrow for the sns cam
. Just thought I'd share

Glad you are happy Justin!
While few of us here would be happy with a stock stall, I still think 4000 is a bit much for street driving especially if your rear is less than the 3.73 you have.
I switched between my Yank 3600 and TCI 2400 (every time I tried another trans build) several times last year and would probably prefer something in between with my 3.42 rear. I suspect your 4000/3.73 and my 3600/3.42 feel very similar.
Of course, much of this comes down to personal preference.
BTW - PM/Email me if you ever coming to Ann Arbor; I hope to get out to Kalamazoo later this year.

Yeah....I could see 3.42/3600 being about the same as 4000/3.73...I still never got to feel the loose feeling everyone has talked about. It feels really tight...unlike my girlfriend...hahah...whatever

I loosened her up for ya
.
On a serious note... Glad you like the converter after I was done with my break in it was a good feeling to be able to just punch it. Get some good tires and take full advantage of it especially with the cam.
